Top 10 NXT prospects for main roster debuts in 2017

#5 Austin Aries

Aries has all the tools to be a huge WWE success story.

I was completely shocked when I found out about Austin Aries signing a WWE contract. Of course, there were the rumours and what not, but I honestly expected to see TNA throw out an offer Aries couldn't refuse. Unfortunately for them, I believe it's just a sign of the troubled waters they were in fact wading in at the time.

Aries is a technical wizard and a great showman.

His jump to the main roster is a must. While he might not have time to win any top level titles, he still has plenty of fuel left in his tank to offer fans a strong run. His charisma and ability to sell in the ring, combined with his solid mic work, will be a winning recipe for the self-proclaimed "greatest man that ever lived."
